USS Arizona - USS Missouri Memorial

[@capnsharky]

I too have been on the Mighty Mo. My ship passed the Arizona 4 times in 1962 on our way to Vietnam. I will never forget December 7th 1941. Your tribute is very moving and brought the hair up on the back of my neck.

[@megers67]

I started crying just now. My dad was in the Navy on a battleship during one of the Gulf Wars. He never actually went to war but he very well could have. These 1,177 men from the USS Arizona alone did not have that chance when war came to them. I still have my father, but the families lost their sons, brothers, and their fathers on that day. For that, I salute them. Thank you for making this tribute.

[@davehall6793]

this was very heart toching god bless them the USS Missouri will always protect the beautiful Arizona thank you veterans for serving our county we will always show you respect and the Arizona

[@dummyncc]

I was attached to VA-52 on the USS CARL VINSON (CVN-70) when we visited Pearl Harbor in 1988. As we passed the ARIZONA, we manned the rails and all that was heard was the boatswain's pipe. A truly inspiring sight.

I am proud to say we stood guard for the might mo in the coast of Japan back in 1953. She was one hell of a ship as she stood there with her 16" guns. I salute all the crew of the U.S.S. Missouri, thank for your service of your country.

Bill Campbell, I was a USNR Fireman aboard USS Jason AR-8 in January of 1963. We stopped in Hawaii en-route to WestPac tour in PI. My uncle served in WWII and was stationed at Hickam AFB and he took me over to see the Memorial. It was a very touching experience. Proud to have served.

[@timcampbel]

I visited the USS Arizona in 1963 as a Navy Fireman while in port on the USS Walton. I cried then and still tear up when I think of those souls. This is just part of what makes our country so great. Rest in Peace.

[@richardlbaker1776]

+William Campbell While stationed in Hawaii in 1968 I went out to the Arizona, had the same reaction as you, but also a great deal of regret because the majority of others who visited that day were Japanese and as far s I am concerned they have no business aboard that ship.

[@ferroussteinka9334]

+Richard L Baker By far the most respectful visitors to the Memorial are the Japanese. You will never see them wearing shorts or sandals and they often bring flowers.

[@atkinsman]

This happened the year before I was born. I was in the Navy too but never saw action and my heart goes out to the families of those who died that day. :'(

I attended the dedication of the USS ARIZONA Memorial in June 1962. We were in the South Pacific as part of Operation Dominic, JTF-8 testing nuclear bombs. USS Halsey Powell DD-686 came to Pearl Harbor for a three day resupply. In June of 2002 I attended the 40th anniversary celebration of the Memorial and while there delivered the speech that Governor George W.P. Hunt delivered at the christening of the USS Arizona at the Brooklyn Navy Yard on June 19, 1915. It had been in storage in the State Capital Building of Arizona and was given to me as an interested Native of Arizona. There were also cartoons included in my gift that had appeared in the New York Daily Mirror on the day of Christening. I've also had the privilege of knowing three survivors of the USS Arizona. Respectfully C.A. Smith Lt. USN

Remember those who gave there lives for our blessed country. In this time of day rest away, for those will always be remembered.

[@russellpillion5408]

I had the honor to serve our Great Country as a member of the U.S. Navy. While the USS Belle Grove LSD-2 was going thru a yard period in Seattle, WA I took a trip to the Grave Yard Fleet in Bremerton, WA and go aboard the Mighty Mo and read the plaque on the Quarterdeck. We also stopped in Hawaii for repairs on our way to Westpac and I was able to go out to the USS Arizona Memorial and pay my respects to the brave Sailors who did on have a chance on Dec 7, 1941. God Bless all of our Veterans and Active Duty Personal who continue to keep our Country the home of the Free because of the Brave.

"Rest Easy..We Won".....that's why she was named Missouri. The "SHOW ME" State.

[@Anthony-66]

Dont cry there big girl shes honored as a famous battleship ever due to having ciws and stronger radar and missile system.

[@AndyD162]

R.I.P to all those who have fallen. It is really sad though that Mighty Mo is disabled and cant move anymore. But it is great that she came back to her sister ship. I wish our Navy had modern battleships, big ole firepower is sometimes needed to complete the job. There will never be another era like WWII, I thank everyone who has fought and died for our freedom.

[@Huffinator]

best mighty mo and az ive seen ever!

[@spwb2k]

cool vid. I think the lasting message Mighty Mo's presence sends to the fallen crew of AZ is maybe less "we won", (something of obvious lasting importance), and more "I've come back to stay & make sure your sacrifice is forever remembered" (something which is timeless.)

[@BobLeeSwaggerUSMC]

I am a WWII baby and like most kids of that era grew up to stories of Tarawa, Guadalcanal, Iwo Jima, Okinawa etcetera and the sea battles that went with them along with Victory at Sea and the Silent Service Navy films of actual action scenes of battle. Then when I was about ten-YO I saw the Fighting Sullivan's and from then on I only had eyes for Navy Blue. I was lucky and was on a destroyer and spent enough time in and out of Pearl that I often visited the Arizona and the WWI Submarine Memorial. I don't mind saying I always ended up with a fair amount of 'sea spray' on my eyelids and face.

[@JohnLloydScharf]

We take these things in stride today. More died on 9/11. Kabul, Tehran, Baghdad, and Karachi were not firebombed or nuked. But, then, we were not a superpower and they could have over-run us. We did not know if we could win that World War, but we did know several huge military powers had their eyes on our factories, resources, and treasures. In a world of tyrants and their draconian ideologies, we have the tiger by the tail.... as long as we have the largest navy in the world.

[@missinglink44]

God Bless you Boys! Reminds me of when we were tied up beside the New Jersey, prior to our departure. Spell binding. See you all soon enough. USMC 71-74

Mighty mo can still move all iowa battleships still have there engines just in case of a really bad war they might have a chance of coming back into service

[@shadowzone2588]

Its sad to see the mo sit there as if it wants to cry over the death of its sister.

[@stonks6616]

Very true John but we need a commander-in - chief that will not hobbel the military and fire Admirals, and Generals like this one has done.

Takumi Fujiwara the first day of WW2 was 1st September 1939 not the 7th December 1941, many Americans joined Canadian & UK Armand forces before the 8th December when the US officially joined WW2

Give a little credit for trying to recognize.
